Notes

• Running fired torpedo count: 1
• A working title for this episode was “Merrek”.
• The Doctor & Kes do not appear in this episode.
• The first time Tuvok performs a Vulcan neck pinch – as himself.
• Several things from this ep were re-uses from others. Janeway’s scanner was a micro-resonator in “Learning Curve”. Two doors in the marketplace were in “Ex Post Facto”, a pen was used before in TNG’s “Angel One”, some artwork was also used in TNG’s “The High Ground” and Enterprise’s “Broken Bow“. There was more than this, but I thought that was enough. :)
• It worked the other way too as the Mokra Order soliders’ costumes were used elsewhere – in the Voyager episodes “Nemesis“, “Relativity“, “Canamar“, & “Demons“.  Additionally on the Enterprise episode “Damage“.
• Alan Scarfe plays Augris here.  He played two separate Romulans in TNG’s “Data’s Day” (Mendak) & TNG’s “Birthright Part II” (Tokath).
• Glenn Morshower plays a Mokra guard here.  He was also Burke in TNG’s “Peak Performance“, Orton in TNG’s “Starship Mine“, the Enterprise-B navigator in Star Trek Generations, & MacReady in Enterprise’s “North Star“.
• The main guest star is Joel Grey.  He plays Calem here.  This is his only Star Trek appearance, but he’s a well known actor in a metric ton of things. However, I know him best from his appearance in the finale of the TV series Dallas as a demon who tries to get JR Ewing to kill himself.
